Elongation of C. elegans embryos requires stiffness and force to be specifically oriented in a coordinated manner in different cells.

A proposal for a complete cellular/network implementation of trial-and-error motor learning in the olivo-cerebellar system.

Airborne PM2.5 exposure triggers oxidative stress and mitochondrial apoptosis in placental trophoblast cells via the KLF9/CYP1A1 transcriptional axis, ultimately leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Neural circuit monitoring and manipulation reveal that neurons of the rostral intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus projecting to the dorsal striatum activate at movement initiation and reward to reinforce actions.

Dopamine signaling gradually causes long-lasting changes in fine motor coordination that can later be activated by acute changes in dopamine neuron activity.

In models reconstructed from MRI scans of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source, computational simulations reveal that fibrosis has the intrinsic capacity to sustain arrhythmia drivers when subjected to triggered activity known to exist in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Interconnected ventral tegmental area and medial prefrontal cortex circuits causally link dopamine dynamics, aversive learning, and the effects of a promising rapidly acting antidepressant ketamine.

The diameter of cortical arteries is not controlled by the overall neural activity, but rather by a subset of specialized neurons.

A customizable open-source hardware and software platform for conducting diverse behavioral experiments in head-fixed mice.

Directly exerting force on the mammalian spindle reveals local and short-lived reinforcement in the spindle center, well-suited to preserve connections to chromosomes over seconds and yet allow remodeling over minutes.
